Longtime member of Woodminster Summer Musicals theatre company(Oakland,Ca). Played in a jazz band as a kid. Studied music with uncle, Will Spencer, who performed with many of the greats of the Big Band era.
I've travelled all over the country to take part in films. From the Mojave Desert to the backwoods of Minnesota. With most of the time spent in L.A., San Francisco, Chicago, and Milwaukee. Playing roles in westerns, cop dramas, horror, family, and Sci-Fi. My favorite period in Hollywood Films: The 60's & 70's Favorite director: Sergio Leone. Some favorite scenes: "Fur Trappers" (Dead Man), "O'Daniel" (Midnight Cowboy), "Waiting for the Flagstone Train" (Once Upon A Time in the West)
Occasionally spend time in L.A. with appearances in a few primetime shows along with some cable and some soaps. Had particular fun working a soap in NY and a commercial there too. On the tube, I watch Documentaries, Ballgames, & News. -The news just to keep my optimistic outlook on life in check.
As a kid, my parents thought Drive-In Movies were the greatest thing. So did I. TV was a big thing around the house too. Books have taken a back seat all my life and I regret not having a taste for books. I did read BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE at age 11 which set off a lifelong feeling of brotherhood with the American Indian.
